I've been asked to post this competition info on the blog and I'm happy to do so because it sounds like fun and the prizes are great. It does seem to suggest you have to wear glasses to enter, but I'm not sure how they will enforce this. Anyway here it is.
To celebrate Glasses Direct's new blog, the online prescription glasses retailer has launched the GD Book Worm Club, an online competition that encourages book readers, whether avid or occasional, to post their reviews so that others can read up on their recommendations on a plethora of reads. Whether it be a good old paperback, a Kindle or Kobo, Glasses Direct want glasses wearers to join the GD Book Worm Club.
Each month, GD Book Worms can submit their reviews on a book they've read, which will then be posted onto the Glasses Direct blog. Whichever review gets the most happy comments wins that months star review.
Each monthly winner will receive a star prize, as well as a pair of glasses. For April, the winner will receive a Kindle Touch, a pair of Element or London Retro frames with their prescription and one of the Spring Summer 2012 goody bags* from the glasses e-tailer's press event, held at The Soho Hotel this April.

And don’t forget to include a picture of yourself with the book!
(If you’re camera shy, just the book will do but we’d rather see your lovely faces)
